Vuelta a España La Vuelta Femenina 2025 (May 4-10)

[Didinho]

It’s gonna be a sprint before the sprint with that turn at 150m to go.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Nice damp corner with about 150 to go an accident waiting to happen

 

[Netserk]

Very crafty (and clean) delivery by her teammates in the corners.

 

[Didinho]

Letizia doing everything alone, hope she could get 2nd. And maybe leader??

Vos too strong and perfect from Visma.

 

[RedheadDane]

Well, that was quite easy by Vos.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Unipublic incapable of designing a sprint finish, Visma the only team capable of looking at the roadbook.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Easy win for Vos.

 

[Didinho]

Letizia doing everything alone, hope she could get 2nd. And maybe leader??

From the top 10 graphic it seems Vos green and Paternoster red. Hoped for the double but leader would also be something to be proud of.

Edit: Would’ve been the same time with Gerritse if she didn’t jump to 2nd. New leader with 2” now.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Rooijakkers, Meijering and Magnaldi were in G2. And Bradbury didn't make it back, so Kasia will have to be a domestique for herself now. Also now I think it was Harvey who was part of the kerfuffle in the roundabout, and not Van der Breggen. I didn't trust the Danish commentators, but the Vuelta live ticker said it was VDB as well.

Vos put on a show of bike handling skills. Paternoster unlucky when she got held up when Vollering nearly crashed with 500 metres to go.

 

[Sciatic]

Quite a happy gal (Paternoster)!

 

[Black Betsy]

Vos the boss masterclass, PFP sacrificing for the cause and Princess Demi beautifull save...
Almost made up for the atrocities of yesterday.

 

[yaco]

I am interested in how Trinca Colonel goes in this race. She's much improved since last year and her climbing level has been good this season. Its a matter of how good is her recovery.

 

[MartinGT]

Why wasn't there a time gap between Vos and Paternoster? At least a couple of bike lengths between em?

 

[Sciatic]

Definitely.

 

[Didinho]

Imogen Wolff with a strong leadout but she also bumped into everyone around her, even with Vos, before the first corner. And taking it slow and wide so everyone behind her had no speed left out of the corner is more dangerous for me than celebrating a teammates win before the line. Ferguson crashed on the wet lines and because everyone had to go wider and braking harder.

She did take that corner a little clunkily, but I don't think there were bad intentions involved. Certainly because Ferguson and her seem to be best friends, judging by their social media.

Was not what I meant indeed. Certainly no bad intentions. I’ve just found it more dangerous in every sprint where a leadout has to find a way to stay in his lane while at the limit. I think Wolff also wanted to do a good finish but her turn wasn’t the best and she hindered everyone. Now you knew in the corner who would win, but no one was beating Vos starting in first position.

I’ve seen it a couple times with the men where the leadout drops right before the last corner and stays in the inside hindering everyone. Was the same here, I found it a bit unnecessary because Vos was already in place.

 

[Netserk]

If done well, so not recklessly, I think it's just good racing to hinder the opposition.

 

[Didinho]

Georgia Baker got sick yesterday. One of the last finishers. Will not start today.

Also Dygert DNS.

 

[RedheadDane]

Talking about timing!
I started the stream just as they were showing the route.

 

[dgodave]

Lots of flat grass to look at.

That's about 50km too early

 

[RedheadDane]

That's about 50km too early

It was just as the coverage was about to start!
Also known as; perfect!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

A snoozefest today due to the lack of wind. Maybe we'll get a battle for the intermediate sprint if they catch the break beforehand.
